Stormy Blue Pests

Hey Folks,

Happy Weekend!

Well, today I got a few more ti pests done...these are anodized a new shade of blue that I'm calling Stormy Blue. It's hard to capture in photos but it's kind of a metallic looking cross between UV, blue, green, teal, sea foam and aquamarine all mixed up. It's a higher voltage color in between UV and green on the spectrum. Rather nice color that I will be using again for sure on future tools. Anyway, I just have a couple dozen of these finished for now and they are $65 plus shipping. Thanks for checking in and have a great weekend. ;)

My first Peter Atwood tool! I had just about given up on ever getting one, given how I've never been able to coordinate with the product posts. As with many of the blessings in my life (wife, family, Mustang, Halo drum), I believe Fate happened to be smiling my way.

Really getting tired of seeing new tools and what not come out and sellout in no time, only to find them on eBay for triple..there are plenty of people out there that want to use/collect you pieces...wish there was a way to keep the resalers away.

I kind of can't believe I finally got in on a sale. Know this: you'll never find my Atwood, or rare beers, on eBay. I'm so selfish that I keep them for myself and/or share them with friends and family.

Peter, the Focal is a bad-ass watch. My buddy just received his, and with the special treated steel that rivals Sinn's tegimented, the ideal crown location, and lume that can light a path in the woods, it is an incredible bang for the buck. Oh, this is tool blog, hey, love the new color of these Pests.

It sure does look like a winner and it's got that big Fricker case similar to the Kobolds but hardened which of course I like. I'm pretty psyched about it. And the yellow accents look terrific too. There's just something about those German watches that really does it for me, so many good ones out there and their design aesthetics really resonate with me.

You forgot to mention that these have a matte/cold grey in certain angles. This is my kind of color, so it's pretty much a perfect tool that I'll keep forever. Last night's bottle of Hopslam can attest to its prowess.
